Which lines in this excerpt from “Flight” by John Steinbeck contain personification? The farm buildings huddled like the clingin

g aphids on the mountain skirts, crouched low to the ground as though the wind might blow them into the sea. . . . Five-fingered ferns hung over the water and dropped spray from their fingertips. . . . The high mountain wind coasted sighing through the passand whistled on the edges of the big blocks of broken granite. . . . A scar of green grass cut across the flat. And behind the flat another mountain rose, desolate with dead rocks and starving little black bushes. . . . Gradually the sharp snaggled edge of the ridge stood out above them, rotten granite tortured and eaten by the winds of time. Pepe had dropped his reins on the horn, leaving direction to the horse. The brush grabbed at his legs in the dark until one knee of his jeans was ripped.

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

b. Transformation

Explanation:

Transformation is what we have when our heart is renewed.

Transformation can be seen in the light of the repentance.

Transformation is a marked change in appearance or character, especially one for the better.

We see in the Jonah and the Whale story how the city Nineveh marked for destruction was again restored when they heard the warnings of the creator via the lips of the prophet Jonah.

Their plea of repentance was accepted and the nation preserved, the people turned from their iniquities to the Lord God and the Land was transformed.

Other themes that fit the Biblical story of "Jonah and the Whale" includes compassion, obedience and judgment.
